MagArrow Spec Sheet

The MagArrow is a new lightweight (1 kg) magnetometer designed for UAS magnetic surveys. It can survey areas 10x faster than traditional methods. The self-contained unit has onboard GPS, storage, and WiFi to operate independently of the UAS. It can sample at 1000 Hz even when flown up to 10 m/s. The long battery life allows for multiple UAS flights on a single charge. The MagArrow provides high quality data and is easy to use with any enterprise UAS.

The MagArrow can be attached easily to a wide variety of


enterprise UAS. The 1000 Hz sample rate synchronized to the
on-board GPS allows the system to function independently of
the UAS and the UAS software. With such a fast sample rate,
surveys can be completed at speeds up to 10 m/s with samples
collected every 1 cm.
Operation in the field is simple. Survey details are programmed
into the user’s UAS software of choice. The MagArrow is turned
on, and once airborne, preprogrammed GPS waypoints carry
the MagArrow in altitude stable survey lines. Once work is
completed, data from the MagArrow can be wirelessly
downloaded to a computer. “The UAS-enabled MagArrow also fills the gap between pilot-on-board
